I had a talk with my gunsmith and he found an slightly used 6mm barrel in his stockpile, a barrel i can get for a good price . The caliber was chosen before abd that is the 6xc . The barrel is an Shilen Select Match, so that barrel was sold after 10 seconds of consideration, it has twist 1-10 so it can use various standard bullets.

I'm shooting a Pac Nor 6XC in a Savage s/shot...very well balanced cartridge..higher velocity/less powder/pressure than a 243...mine is an 8 twist 27" x 1.055" no taper..powders I use are H4350..H4895..BLC...using Win & Nosler 22-250 cases now..but Norma is producing XC cases now...Your 10T barrel will work well with 55-90 gr bullets..I'd stay with the 75 & 87 V max if a varmint rig..

I dont know what style it is on the barrel , but he will come send some pictures soon of it and the specs and twist also.

But its an good priced way to get to try an fine round for match shooting and hunting .

Thats an fine rig, my rifle will be buildt upon this one, an Krico 308 lenght receiver.



I think it will be an fine all versatile rig for different use on hunting and shooting .

Im not sure of scope for it, but an 6-24 would be fine on it, but im not certain yet what ill choose.
